• New Zealand guest nights fell 4.4 percent, after a rise of 2.3 percent in May.
• North Island guest nights fell 4.9 percent, and South Island guest nights fell 4.6 percent.
• Domestic guest nights fell 8.1 percent, and international guest nights fell 2.3 percent.

parks in New Zealand each month.
